Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) is a mitochondrial enzyme that affects many aspects essential to cell proliferation and survival. Recently, DHODH has been identified as a potential target for acute myeloid leukemia therapy. Herein, we describe the identification of potent DHODH inhibitors through a scaffold hopping approach emanating from a fragment screen followed by structure-based drug design
二氢乳清酸脱氢酶 (DHODH) 是一种线粒体酶,影响细胞增殖和生存所必需的许多方面。最近,DHODH 已被确定为急性髓系白血病治疗的潜在靶点。在此,我们描述了通过片段筛选的支架跳跃方法鉴定有效的 DHODH 抑制剂,然后进行基于结构的药物设计,以进一步改善整体概况并揭示意想不到的新颖结合模式。此外,这些化合物具有较低的 P-gp 流出率,可用于需要暴露于大脑的应用。
